Hassan Mustafa, a T/C who remained in the South after 1974, appears to be the first T/C Muhtar to be elected to the post after 1974. He lives in the village of Androlikou in Paphos together with 4 more T/Cs .The village is also inhabited by 15 G/C families.

I happen to know that Androlikou is not unrelated to the story of the AKAMAS film........

Mukhtar literally means, "chosen," and may also refer to the head of a village.

Good Morning,

I Know very well the village of Androlikou. A friend of who now stay in the nearby village of prodromi was born in androlikou.

As fas as know, there are four Turkish Cypriots familly in the village of androlikou, and a Greek doctor.

I've dedicated two pages of my personal web site about the village of androlikou.

The language of my web site is in french, I intend to translate into english as soon as possible.

All the Best

Thank you for those links,Cavalier.
Perhaps this village which looks more like a set from a medieval disaster movie, should be preserved as a monument to the stupidity and pigheadedness of Cypriots...for centuries to come. Crying or Very sad

Good Evening everybody,

First thank you for your welcome. I would to apologize for my delay to introduce myself.

I was born in france, I'm 43 I stay in the center of paris. I'm a radio engineer.

I used to go to cyprus at least once a year for more than 13 years.

When I'm in cyprus, I stay near lacthi. I've seen during the last 13 years the evolution of the political situation.

In the polis chrisohous region I've both turkish and greek close friends, it is the reason for what I know very well the androlikou village.

All the best
